I hope this means they are considering making it a party game. Especially since the artwork and other aspects of the game already look impressive. Real time movement, turn based tactical combat! And if, in their maps, it was feasible to do that seamlessly without needing to switch into a separate combat mini map that would be ideal. Taking on board some of the ideas in the new XCOM EU (2 part turns etc) and Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes (swarm etc) could make for a great combat system.
